Raising Ride Height

While I had the shocks disassembled to replace the bushes and I had access to the
whole unit I decided to try raising the ride height a bit to stop
the exhaust grounding. So I wound them up about 1/2" (If you
remember I could not do that in situ as the whole unit was rotating
when I turned the adjuster, now I could hold that in a clamp while
turning the adjuster).

Took her for a short run and the ride height doesn't seem to have
made much difference. There is a spot on the exit from the village
that I always avoid as I ground there regardless, so I tried
again. She still grounded, although it was more of a 'kiss' than a
violent thump. Maybe I could try adding another 1/2" to the coils.
We'll see how it goes.
